2021-02-04 08:35:20Christopher watched as his friends disappeared behind a hill. ' Gotta admit it's nice having people who actually care around.' Once he was certain they kept going he turned to face the three hundred knights that were getting closer with each passing moment. " Now what the hell am I going to do about this." He sighed
Taking a deep breath he looked around.. Beautiful, the view was simply breath taking. They had been moving further north for some time, doing so has brought them into view of the Ademos Mountains lush green lands leading up to the snowy peaks offered the beauty of the north for lovers of all seasons. The sun although setting was a wonder to behold as it began to set lower behind the mountains. A nice strong summer breeze blowing from the mountains bearing the warmth of the last rays of sun light and the cool beauty of the frosty mountain tops.
'Ah a good place to die." Christopher took in a deep breath inhaling the fresh air. It was something he never

The moment Christopher's hand wreathed in flames slammed into the ground a daisy chain of explosions echoed outward from the point of impact. Anyone who was unfortunate enough to be nearby was instantly erased from the world almost as if they had never existed. The few that left any proof that they had once been, was around the lines of a finger or some sort of small organ strewn about."AAAAH!" cries could be heard all around. Of course there had been survivors as well but none of them were able to escape the blast unscathed. Flames surged forward from the point of origin which many of the soldiers had taken directly to the face. Agonizing cries resonated around through the mist and smoke. The armor given to them that both brought them pride and defended them against the attacks of their enemies had now become a curse. The plate armor got super heated fusing it to their skin peeling off their armor now was essentially peeling off their own skin.This could have been t

Everyone could only feel excitement. Leaving Christopher behind to buy them time had now become an after thought. The only thing they could feel at this moment was both happiness and excitement. The only one still looking back in the direction Christopher had last been seen was Elise and John."The border!" Garrett called out excitedly. They had finally arrived at the territory of Helenfel. Even if she would not provide aid to Sarah, at the very least Halbert would not bring his army into Lady Cassandra's territory without first receiving her approval. One way or another they had bought themselves a reprieve. All actual roads going to or from Helenfel guarded by a small garrison and gates to help prevent crime and protect their people. Truly she cared more for her people's safety then the king did in the capitol.When they passed through the gate Garrett gave him his name and requested an audience with Lady Cassandra so no one would know Sarah was with them. One of the

"Holy shit it really is him!" There was only one person that would know something like that and have the balls to come to her gate and say it. " Bring him here now!" Sarah, Garrett and Vanessa all looked to each other, they were afraid Chris had just offended their one last hope. "Lady Cassandra I apologize if that man has offen-"Before she could finish the sentence Christopher was half dragged into the courtyard. "Hello beautiful ladies, I'm back." smiling Chris waved as if nothing significant had happened. Before anyone had the chance to process everything a blur shot past everyone tackling Christopher to the ground. Brianna was now hugging Chris as if the most sacred treasure in the world had just dropped down in front of her. "Welcome back." She smiled and planted a kiss on his lips. "Good thing Elise isn't heeeere" Sarah whispered to Garrett and Vanessa in a sing song voice."Hey Bri." Chris smiled then turned to Cassandra. " Hey could you prepare a room for everyo

Everyone had already got settled in their rooms. The manor was indeed massive with plenty of spare space for anyone who needed a room to stay in. While Christopher slept everybody gathered for dinner in the dining hall. Not room but Hall. Helenfel's manor was indeed a place that could outshine most the royalty of smaller kingdoms. A Giant Marble table, chairs cushioned and adorned with the work of custom made craftsman ship. Each arm rest having different hand carved creatures, and it was not just for the seats for the high ranking visitors, it was every chair in the hall. Immaculate engraved pillars, paintings from the most infamous creators both old and new. It was a marvel to behold, Sarah could hardly compare the great feast hall in the City Of Eternity.Helenfel was always wisely managed and had an abundance of resources and was a major trade hub connecting to the highways going in every direction. Their wealth allowed them to maintain an active and highly trained army.

Three and a half years ago. The ruins of Cavara."Repeat that message for me one more time." Cassandra growled through grit teeth, Gripping the table so tight her knuckles were turning white."King Robert said if we try to fall back any further, he will have yourself, and every single soul that moves executed.""That son of a bitch!" "Lady Cassandra that is our king.""No he's a selfish piece of shit. He's willing to send anybody to their death so long as it's no one he cares about. Ever since I rejected the marriage proposal to that shit stain Halbert he want's nothing more then me to die."Cassandra wanted to survive more then anything now just to run back to the capitol and strangle the king with her own hands. Word had made it's way through the grapevine that he had indeed begun preparing to move the main army, but she had been informed it was to move northwest, not north east to their current location. Cassandra and her men were being hung out

Talking down to a god of death? What was that supposed to mean? She had heard some stories about Chris but mostly brushed them under the rug. These soldiers of all sorts of backgrounds were willing to risk everything to support him. It was not even a full year since being in The Black Guard, yet he already commanded so much respect." Lady Cassandra, is this really ok?" Taelin had remained silent during the entire exchange. Afraid of upsetting Cassandra for his men's complete failure in scouting and security."Worse thing that could happen is Robert would send someone to collect them, maybe we'll really get lucky and they would get caught up in the battle." She shrugged. "The man seems to clearly want us dead so screw itNever in his life had Taelin heard anyone so openly mock the king without hesitation. Honestly speaking for some reason when he was near the group he was terrified of them. The aura that emanated from them rattled his nerves. Of course it wasn't a

Two days after the arrival of Christopher and the other soldier's.A cool breeze blew through the forest carrying the multi colored leaves that danced on the wind. The end of summer was here. The natural beauty and sounds of the wild life going untouched by man for centuries was something to behold. Even the ruins had been taken back by nature. Moss grew on the bricks, tree's were sprouting in what was once buildings of some kind. It was enough to make even the most warry of souls be put at ease."Everyone in position?""Yup they're all set for your signal." Alayna sat next to Christopher who was sitting on a stump looking down a path."I bet this is something you don't see every day where you come from.""Actually there are quite a few forests right next to the capitol, and when it is night time there is simply nothing more beautiful!""Oooh is that so? That's quite amazing. I was not expecting there to such things there. We should go together when

About two hours had passed since the massive pillar of flames were seen sprouting into the sky. Even from the camp the smell was similar to one massive bonfire."My lady it would seem we have found Christopher Hayden and the other members of The Black Guard... They seem to be quite fine."Cassandra breathed a sigh of relief. "Good, maybe they had the chance to witness what the hell just happened.....With one look it was very clear the scout wanted to say something. "Don't hold back. If you think there is any other information I should know, let it out no need to be so reserved with me.""W-well this is pure speculation, but I'm almost positive that they were the cause of the giant explosion."..."That has to be wrong right?" asked one of the minor nobles."Are the fools trying to give away our position?" one demanded."Well sir, about that. I'm pretty certain them causing the explosion and giving out our position is irrelevan

"They used siege magic on the rear line?" Alexis asked with a furrowed brow. "Why would they expend so much magic on the rear line?" To Alexis this didn't make any sense. If they were using it as an opener to an attack from the rear, it would definitely be justifiable. Have your men rush in taking advantage of the destroyed lines and chaos. But using siege magic alone and backing off, would be like someone taking a shotgun to kill a spider inside their own house. Beyond overkill. If they had struck the center of their lines, their commanders, or even their supply train, Alexis could understand the expenditure. Most magic users could fling spells they specialized in for a majority of the day. But siege magic? The average mage could use it four times in one day, but be severely weakened for the next couple of days. Sure they could use siege magic again the next day, but each day without a proper recovery time the power of the attack would be cut in half. "Well sir it seems the rear l

Inside Helenfel. "Right here." Cassandra pointed at a section of her map sprawled out on the table. "This will be the perfect place." Andrea walked around the table to stand next to Cassandra looking down on the map. "Hmmm good call. When they emerge here they'll be in a bottleneck." "That's not all. They'll be coming around a corner too. They wont be able to see our army waiting for them until it's too late. We'll also have archers along the cliff tops. that can shoot down on them." "Why not have our archers continue firing down on them the entire stretch? That's miles of cliff ledge we could use to thin them out." Garrett asked retracing the path on the Albrael army was taking. "Because we don't want to give away our archers. The reason we've barely had our men harass them the past day was leading up to this moment. Most of all we don't want them to double back, leaving the kill zone we've set up." "Isn't there a chance they sent men to the top of the cliffs too though?" "We

Multiple days had passed in the City Of Darkness following the surrender/purge of any still resisting dissidents. And life had begun returning to normal little by little after the bodies were removed from the streets. Havoc's army had upheld their orders. Those who surrendered were allowed to return home without any recourse for fighting against their new host. Neither the members of The Black Guard, nor their militia counter parts caused any unnecessary damage, nor did they loot and pillage the city. Frankly apart from the angered nobles who's homes had been bombarded during the siege, the city was peaceful and upbeat. The stalls were open, any artisans were back to their crafts. The children ran and played in the now cleaned streets that had been soaked in blood not long ago. Guards were posted on every wall and street corner. Christopher and the other leaders involved weren't fools. Though they had been merciful, eventually there would be some who would try fighting back. They e

Just a little earlier"This is big! This is really big!" Brisia grinned ear to ear as she paced back and forth hardly able to contain her excitement. Her little walk even leading her up the walls and onto the ceiling dancing, and skipping, somehow defying gravity."Shit! Shit Shit!" Alesia growled through grit teeth. "I knew something was coming, but even I never imagined this!" Alesia's current mood was about as close to polar opposite of Brisia's as it could get. 'This is the last thing we need currently! If they find out, especially in the middle of this war, we're seriously fucked! Like fucked on the level I was when all the other gods betrayed me and had me cast from the heavens! Perhaps even more fucked!'"I still can't believe it! I mean I suppose when you look at his track record it would make sense, but holy shit!" Brisia exclaimed.

Thunk.... Thunk..."Riggy... Any day now..""Y-You d-don't rush perfection!" Mortis groaned as his nerves were being grated against by a rather pushy spirit. "E-Elise if you think you can do better, by all means t-take over!" He snapped back.Thunk! Thunk!"Well look Riggy.. I don't mean to be pushy... BUT PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO FUCKING KILL US!" Elise roared flapping her arms up and down like they were wings.Fwee!As though on cue an arrow zipped between their faces, mere millimeters from giving Mortis a nose piercing he didn't wish for....."S-See not that bad.." He stood his ground glaring back at Elise who could only return his gaze with wild eyed disbelief.Thunk! Thunk! Thunk!

Christopher walked to the giant hole in the wall he had created when trying to incinerate Markous looking out over the city breathing a heavy sigh, hanging his head low and shaking it. "What's wrong? At this rate the city is as good as yours? Shouldn't you be happy?" Brisia asked walking up the wall before hanging upside down looking out of the hole too. "See your people are already working on the third gate. Isn't this what you wished for?" "I'll admit.. I wasn't expecting to get that old bastard's approval, but this didn't pan out as I had hoped." He shrugged watching balls of fire rain down upon the noble district from the trebuchets outside the city. "Sooo you didn't want the city?" "Pftt I could give two shits less about the city. I wanted the power that dwelled down here. On that note I suppose you could say this was a success. But by the gods the more I was stuck in the presence of that asshole, the more I want to feed his head to a thousand small animals. Just gotta hope th

"HAHAHA JUSTICE SHALL BE DELIVERED!" Vale cried out as though she were a poor soul who had been denied justice by the courts for far too long.BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!The ground erupted all around both the twins and the behemoth of a Vampire. The girls quickly turned their backs to one another taken by surprise, readying themselves as best they could considering their injuries. Their eyes caught a glimpse of a creature emerging from the earth, and it was almost instant. The pair blinked and by the time their eyes opened the massive beings were already hovering well above their heads."You've got to be shitting me." Lala mumbled."If she could do this, It would've been nice of her to have done something sooner." Laura huffed her arm dangling limp by her side.Though still on edge the twins felt they could finally breathe a sigh of relief. The pair took several steps back returning behind their friendly lines.

RAAAWR! A roar ripped through the caverns as the ground beneath their feet began to shake violently. Many people from both sides of the battle looked around trying to find what kind of ferocious beast could emit such a blood curdling sound. "I haven't heard a roar like that in thousands of years." "I've never heard that kind ever!" Their eyes scanned the surroundings. Looking side to side, up around the cavern ceiling, only to find nothing. The monstrous sound was far to loud for anyone to mistakenly assume they had just imagined it. The rumbling earth began shaking harder and harder although you couldn't physically see any movement, the people could feel the movements underneath their feet from whatever was coming, like a slithering serpent snaking it's way through the grass. It felt as though the very earth beneath their feet may collapse at any moment. If anyone in the vicinity were to claim the gods were angered and unleashing their fury on the city, many wouldn't doubt the w

This day and age when someone says an army they think professional soldiers, fighting and killing is their bread and butter, it's what they train for, it's what they're paid for. Their job consists of nothing besides honing those skills. Training and searching for a way to improve upon the ability to kill, to take the life of another human being. But there's times where an army consists of ordinary people, every day people. Bakers, smiths, teachers, sometimes even the students, people you who have never seen combat, mix these people in with some trained soldiers who're willing to advise and educate these people, and at times these armies can be just as dangerous as the professional ones. When you have a reason to fight, whether it's for a better life, to protect someone, to make a name, for your country, even if for a moment it places you at odds with it, you can become a force that's mighty. With no identifying uniform, the enemy will never know when they're about to strike. A man,
